[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2525253, member: 25851"] Actually able to move today. I spent the whole of yesterday in my dressing gown, taking pain killers and resting. Neil was very good and did a lot of the clearing up I had left undone. After resting and dozing so much, I only slept in my bed for a couple of hours last night and came back through to take some more pills and doze in the chair again. But now although the pains are still there, I can move around (the only one that hasn't eased off is my neck - always have had problems with that right back to my teen years when I used to lug a huge school bag full of books around with me - our school didn't provide lockers or our own desks to store books in and somehow I always carried twice the amount of books compared to everyone else). Have to go out again today - Neil is taking me to the Health Centre where the nurse plans to bind my legs up with thick, heavy bandages in an attempt to reduce the swelling. I'm a bit uncertain about it because it involves keeping the bandages on until I go back a couple of times a week to get them re-applied. It's gong to be a bit hot. And what happens about the ointment I am supposed to put on the eczema twice a day? And with so much padding, will I be able to bend my legs to ease the pain or even move around? Well - I'll find out at one o'clock and it's worth a try to get the elephant to take its legs back. [/QUOTE]
